Steppin' To The Bad Side Lyrics

They stole our hit! I never thought...
You've got me to think for you now
I've tried to make good, without much success
You've got me to think for you now
Every time I try for more, I wind up with less
You gotta put your soul on a moral break
Get to the point...you just gotta take

[Curtis, J.T. Early, C.C. White, Wayne:]
Steppin to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Wayne:]
Steppin to the bad side

[Curtis, J.T. Early, C.C. White:]
Gonna take a mean

[Curtis:]

[C.C. White:]

[J.T. Early:]

[C.C. White:]
The smile I had has gone away

[J.T. Early:]

[Curtis, J.T. Early, C.C. White, Wayne:]

No more trustin them, my friends
We're gonna change our style, change our tone
Look for songs we sing our own

[Curtis, J.T. Early, C.C. White, Wayne:]
Steppin to the bad side, ooh, ooh, ooh

Just two years, we'll be in the lead
Just sit back, its plain to see
Open your eyes and trust in me

[James Thunder Early:]
Yea-ee-yea, Man just stole my woman from me
Took her down to Tennessee
She was the best girl I ever knew
If it wasnt for him, she'd still be true
I've always been a good man, its been said
Damnit, that man, he wish you were dead
Men like him make good men mad
Starting today Im gonna be bad, yeah, yeah, yeah

[J.T. Early ad libs:]

[Dreamettes: repeat to end of song]
Step, step, to the bad side
